Covid and flu vaccination ?
Tomorrow I am due for both a covid and flu vaccination. I received a letter from the health authorities and I was offered both as I have the relevant health issues. This is the first time I fall in this category, even when taking pred. and being in the hospital for 5 days with asthma attack (covid) in

Cold cap advice?
Im a very lucky gal whose cancer was caught early (by accident) at stage 1c. I've had surgery and about to start chemo tomorrow. Carbopentin only.

PMR & COVID Vaccine Link?
In another thread which I began on a different subject, the possibility of a link between PMR and COVID vaccine came up. In that thread, for the first time I saw something other than idle speculation that the vaccine and PMR might be l inked: [i]A study published[/i][u][i] in the journal Rheumatology

My GCA Update
I just got done with my MRIs and MRAs, so we’ll see if results show much. My blood test came back with sed rate normal (always has been) and C-reactive prrotein headed down. It went from normal in PMR, to 1.3 and then 2.0 in GCA. Now at 0.8, so barely high and heading in the right direction. Still feeling

Ginkgo - possible adverse side effect: Nervous anxiety
It's me again. On about Ginkgo as usual... Having taken Ginkgo for over 6 months, and having planned relief from Tinnitus by doing so, I may have experienced a side effect. Recent bouts of nervous anxiety. This is not the kind of anxiety you might experience in a dentist waiting room. No, this is
